Name: Mokie Appearance: brown hair, one brown eye, one green eye Story: The foundling child Mokie grows up without anyone to call family and learns to have a greater respect for pigs than humans. As a young teen, she is given responsibility over bringing the pig herd to graze, and it's during this time that she adopts as her own Apple, the 13th pig of her litter. On one outing with the pigs, a group of villiage boys come to where she is sharing stories with Apple. They rape Mokie and leave her in the woods. As a result, Mokie and Apple take off into the forest with no intention of ever going back. Survival in the forest is hard for them until they meet a group of mysterious travelers who make Mokie feel welcome. With these people, Mokie begins to realize who she is and that other people can care for her. But an ancient pattern is being repeated, a pattern of which Mokie is unknowingly a part. Sometimes legends are true, and sometimes dreams become reality.
